US STATISTICS, ANYONE?

The Statistical Abstract of the United States is available from the US Bureau of the Census, full-text, on the web. It is in the form of PDF or Excel spreadsheet files. Some of the are: population, health and nutrition, education, courts and prisons, prices, natural resources, energy and utilities, manufactures, transportation, information and communications, foreign commerce and aid, and comparative international statistics. There are also appendices or sources, state and foreign statistical abstracts, weights and measures, new tales, and index, and telephone and Internet contact numbers.
